Other than the aforementioned:

My other favorites.

Ingmar Bergman - Persona, Wild strawberries, Seventh Seal, Cries and whispers,etc

Luis bunuel - Age of gold, un chien andalou, The exterminating angel, The discreet charm of bourgeoisie

Sergio Leone - Once upon a time in the wEst/America, The good, the bad and the ugly (best in the dollars trilogy)..

Terry Gilliam - Brazil, 12 monkeys, Monty python films, The fisher king, Fear and loathing in las Vegas

Oh, appidi varingala. Hmmmm But I guess AN was all about 'raping' of either side. The movies victimized themselves more than the other side. All these movies, at different points were strongly against US strategies.

Thilak, surprising that you left out 'Ivan's Childhood' in your list of 'Anti War' films. There is so much to talk about that movie and what Tarkovsky wants to say.

I was talking about films about Vietnam war being Anti-war or not.

Of course, IC will obviously feature in my list of films about Anti-war.

Francois Truffaut: 400 Blows, The Wild Child, Day For Night....

Ivara eppadi marandhen? No New Wave without Truffaut..

Also, Makhmalbaf - the man who made the world take note of Iranian cinema.

[thilak4life]

Iranian movies.

"Children of heaven" and "Taste of Cherry" are my favorites. Haven't seen that many. Kannann, give me your favorites in it.

Few other directors with distinctive style:

Fellini, Antonioni, Godard and Peckinpah.
